Webpack plugin: replace-hashcontent-in-file-webpack-plugin

⚠️This is a fork from the original project https://github.com/jamieconnor/replace-hash-in-file-webpack-plugin#readme. The only difference in here is that I modified the source code to work hashcontent instead

Webpack plugin that can replace content in file(s) after compilation is done. This is useful when you want to replace content in any kind of files(html, css, js etc) which are not processed by loaders.

Use [hash] to insert the compilation hash into the search and replace when it is a string or a method returning a string i.e. not a regex.

This is heavily based off replace-in-file-webpack-plugin

Installation

Install the plugin with npm:

$ npm i replace-hashcontent-in-file-webpack-plugin --save-dev

Basic Usage

Add the plugin to your webpack and config as follows:

    const ReplaceHashContentInFileWebpackPlugin = require('replace-contenthash-in-file-webpack-plugin');
    const webpackConfig = {
        entry: 'index.js',
        output: {
            path: __dirname + '/dist',
            filename: 'index_bundle.js'
        },
        plugins: [
            new ReplaceHashInFileWebpackPlugin([{
                dir: 'dist',
                files: ['index.html', 'main.html'],
                rules: [{
                    search: /js\/bundle\.*[a-zA-Z0-9]*\.js/,
                    replace: 'js/bundle.[hash].js'
                },{
                    search: /@title/,
                    replace: 'page title!'
                }]
            }, {
                dir: 'dist/style',
                test: /\.html$/,
                rules: [{
                    search: /version/ig,
                    replace: '1.0.0'
                },{
                    search: '@title',
                    replace: function(match){

                    }
                }]
            },{
                dir: 'dist/style',
                test: [/\.css$/, /\.txt/],
                rules: [{
                    search: /version/ig,
                    replace: '1.0.0'

                    search: '@title',
                    replace: 'webpack'
